decision he is playing he’s going to give it a go but he’s battling a lower body [Music] injury and W back wins the opening draw clean North Carolina will go on offense first and this is a UNC team that has been beat up over the last few weeks number seven James maton getting the start today he was questionable with an injury Owen Duffy their top attackman The Freshman the team’s leading score flanked by Andrew price The Freshman getting the start on that first Midfield price turbines away from trouble still plenty of time to shoot there’s maton fakes the shot with the left 21 dwey Egan threat from the outside also on that first Midfield now the Freshman Dom petramalo with the bounce shot didn’t look like a good idea initially it goes in and boy does he need to see it he came into this game shooting 2 for 23 in ACC play I think you play a minut and you see the recipe for an upset it starts with Faceoff wins and long possessions and then shooting percentage has been a a real storyline here in Chapel Hill Petra Mala now a red shirt freshman strong left-hander known for expect to see Cal Gerard and Luke Angley take some reps at the faceof facts zero in white is Lance Tilman a senior it his senior day for North Carolina Trevor Dubner another senior from Glenn Ridge New Jersey now Logan McGovern who has scored at least one point in every one of his games as a tar heel he gets the pick McGovern gets top side and stings the back of the net two nothing Tar Heels we know they’ve got a lot to play [Music] for you got mascots here in Chapel Hill on a gorgeous Saturday nice little crowd on Senior Day McGovern one of those graduate transfers from Bryant who was honored prior to this game and Carolina playing with I like the trail check right there that’s not a penalty but the hit is high and late and that’s going to Garner a flag every day of the week Max Cooney 65 senior from Georgetown prep has a seat in the Penalty Box he’s been the replacement for Paul Barton O’Neal over to Dyson Williams now Charles Bal shutting off madori O’Neal Lefty Hammer [Applause] Eureka odd defensive strategy for North Carolina as they shut off Andrew madori of all people on the left side of your screen leaving O’Neal an opportunity to catch cradle and step down I mean this is just way too easy you must impact the big man career goal number6 for O’Neal Who in his previous three games against Carolina has bludge into the Tar Heels nine goals and eight assists in those three [Music] games O’Neal almost had it and it’s scooped up by North Carolina Hager up hot shot saved by Patrick Jameson The Freshman denying Brady wach the Fogo I I don’t mind the shot but if you’re a Fogo taking a 15 yard shot from Center top O’Neal Sledgehammer down the alley that time Hot Shot saved that was off the cross of Johnston rebound loose and Carolina comes up with the ground ball Cooper frankenheimer heels fans love the D’s Lance Tillman keep going back to that 21 team Tillman came out of nowhere down the stretch they called him dance Tilman big part of that run to the National semi-finals mcgoverin at top side gives it up petrala unleashes and scores [Music] [Music] Dom petrala the Lefty I so a one minute non-releasable man Up 77 in white Dominic petramala son of the legend and the d-coordinator for UNCC Dave petramalo with two of the three feet in front Jameson turned it away loose ball comes back to McGovern skip pass up top that’s price petrala feeds the mill Eagan got a hammer from the outside Jameson read that one all the way that’s one he needed to make freshman righty’s been super solid all season long the Pennsylvania native up hovering at times this this season at around 60% saves he’s been St Max SLO he’s a lefty over to denza going to the St Anthony’s Cavalry for Duke so it’s a man-to-man defense but it’s got Zone principles up top they’re doubling from the adjacent the next door neighbor Defender denza got a good look goes low and he brings Duke to within a goal at [Applause] [Music] 3-2 step down City here at dorren Field North Carolina just getting too passive too soft and too condensed on the perimeter and denza senses that real estate like okay if I step and what’s the counter for Duke uh Duke need just get the I I think Duke needs to jam the ball behind and and start more sets from the wing and behind against that look we’ll try to do it here this this second Midfield group has been an invert here is Zada Alex Slusher the Princeton transfer behind the cage 46 goals two years ago on ation semi-finalist team inside rle not there he was in the crease Carolina ball yeah he’s in the game right now for O’Neal and John danowski has Pon not had the great Support over the last two years so his save percentage is a bit down he’s not playing in every in the big games so he’s he’s not being scrutinized uh his games aren’t being covered but I I think he’s just every bit as good as a bunch of the senior goal tenders it’s it’s an incredible class of goalies No Doubt this is Ryan Levy working on Gray or rather Caputo now Tillman got denz on defense I think Duke’s got seven on the field so it’s an off sides against Duke Tillman against froli now over to Dubner right hand three and Carolina extends to [Music] 4-2 I mean this is this is terrific off defense the flags down so you’re given kind of a free roll Duke defense standing around like blue traffic cone she got seven guys but nobody’s doing nothing dubner’s left all alone in the high slot area little change of level Anisha mentioned it it’s a low release to a high location Carolina continues to be the better team on the field right now wach wins the face off a chance unsettled feeding to Matten one more McGovern Tick Tac Toe [Music] bullseye on reunion weekend this place is Going Bonkers who could have predicted it womach out the front side Duke’s defense rotates they pass it to Perfection Jameson guesses low and the graduate student senior Logan MCG North Carolina is doing this without leading score Owen Duffy without Barton one of their top Defenders their most experienced maton who had the assist is playing through an injury the Schwarz twins are out O’Neal makes it look so easy as he just windmills down the alley apparently angry for the stick violation and being put on the bench by his head coach he runs off this pick switches hands back to his left and snaps it from mid-range making that look Elementary thisy this young man has so much talent I mean one petrala had it knocked Away by Carpenter Matten retrieves the other three Chris Gray who played at UNC in Boston University Justin guttering is stand out at Duke and Logan wisnowski former tarton winner at Maryland really impressed with Carolina’s body language their tenor their aggressive mindset Here Comes dwey Egan through the contact and we’re going to get a whistle on UNC Incas violation and and this game can be emblematic of of of games this weekend you know teams are trying to qualify for their league tournament championship week is next week and a lot of teams are playing elim it’s conceivable Carolina could win today get into the ACC tournament win out still not get in but but if you do that you at least put yourself in that conversation a week from tomorrow they would have three top 10 wins at that point no I listen but again there is no recency bias when it comes to evaluating teams everything is know by the book and they have some bad scars on their resume they’re six and seven coming into this game as Johnston gets free nice individual effort to bring Duke within one lacks reference they do a great job they track the RPI I said if Carolina wins out what range do you see their RPI getting into and he said yeah probably 13 to 15 range and that’s the bubble sometimes that’s the wrong side of the bubble they would have more upside resume that is more top 10 win one and overtime should be a barn burner that game tomorrow Sunday noon from Charlotte North Carolina if if you live in the I’ll be there Quint I’ll be there here’s womach bounce shot save Jameson you are going I’ll be there yeah oh yeah it’s a side of the ACC men’s tournament as well next weekend and he’s got a short stick matchup his eyes are getting big there’s the switch still a short stick it’s English O’Neal down the alley hums it just a bit too high as it cars off the bricks fans can sit behind these goals there’s no net behind this goal to our left keep your head up and paying attention Zada five goals against Virginia last time out kangaroo and lost the ball English in transition nice defense by Peter you and I both had Duke as a preseason number one with a strong finish they’re looking at a a one or a two seed in the NCAA tournament long term is is their depth to me of the main contenders they’re probably best equipped to play two games in three days T to shoot papendick near the cage throws it in front it’s on the ground and C Springs out I mentioned that Notre Dame has wonderful depth at the Midfield position but I don’t love their defensive about the ride here by ball Sone Carolina’s got 10 seconds to get it across Midfield not sure why C let that ball stay in his pocket so long he had Outlets weighs 150 lbs the Lefty from Darian Connecticut just refuse to be denied an opportunity to play sports skip to petrala loads up and scores put a little barbecue sauce off the ground for do petrala this is a nasty shot okay a left-hander coming with an overhand release to a near side high bounce location look at the torque look at the reach back like Randy Johnson fast ball straight over the top using the Earth and up Top balamo Shot blocked CS into the air his career has been under scrutiny since he was in eighth grade in verbal Penn State and here we are now so this next month carve your legacy get drafted number one into the premier Lacrosse League feed in front Creek steps out how about that Quint taking away the angle by moving out of the cage to take away that shot does a nice job of just crashing pend dick and like a hockey goalie spins it back to madori now SLO looking for Zada off his stick Johnson keeps it in bounds Zada can’t find it English off the carpet final minute first half Carolina turns it over think Johnston may have had Dyson Williams for a moment he [Music] [Applause] [Music] hesitated clock and score dictates that probably the smart move Duke can hold for one they take the shot that not the smart shot though I tell you that much and Carolina now pushing the other way English over to petrala he’s got a hatrick his pass was knocked down both teams sloppy bodies flying through a massive Humanity the ball finds the back of the net a Duke defender’s stick just breaks it’s a massive scrum of bodies in front looking like a bunch of six-year-olds playing wck League lacrosse and it’s I believe it’s McGovern it is McGovern who Scoops us up seamlessly left-handed around the world tough deck of cards as a young man but he fought his dad Mark and Mom Deedra in and out of the hospitals as a youngster and he’s been a big part of advocating for a cure wants CF one day to stand for cure found back of the net found maton and Carolina closing this second half with a blitz these this is stunning Quint these are gigantic goals before halftime because you’re going to go in into the locker room with all sorts of belief so two goals there in under 30 seconds with six you don’t quite understand what’s happening here and this this crowd is feeding off this final ticks did they get their shot off does it count the goal is good now they have replay review so you can review this Danny striano John danowski is not throwing a flag the officials could look at it at themselves ball must be out of his stick by zeros three goals in an absolute eye blink if this one stands and let’s see we got the clock yeah that counts that counts Quint three goals in 20 seconds to close the first the ACC is capped at plus five or minus5 so coming into this game you had Duke at plus five Virginia at plus two Carolina at minus five with a five-goal advantage in the first half Carolina has wiped out that minus five they’re back to zero as is Duke in that all important goal differential so the margin of Victory could potentially matter depending on the result of Notre Dame Virginia well below par in Duke’s three losses Johnston Sloat saved by C easy stop by C the Lefty senior from Ward Melville I can win this is they lost to a team outside of the RPI top 20 now if Carolina goes on a run and wins this game wins the next two that loss looks better for Duke but in the moment this is a loss that really hurts your resume absolutely Anish I mean win out they’re going to be a onew one two three type seed price it is a six goal Advantage for North Carolina [Music] C the Lefty Stands Tall with a easy save good rebound control look at him eyes on that ball in the pocket at the other end the price is right when it comes to ground balls and up six on the scoreboard and Womack’s been a game changer against a banged up naso early offense big save Jameson oh they putting a putting quite a few shots on Jameson wach scores flat down he might need a shot off Jameson W back this is a gutsy play this is a toughness play he wins this initial draw out the front side right it’s a fast break watch what happens to him after he makes the pass to the point man he is lit up boom right there there’s the penalty flag is dropped oh he gets to his feet oh I just happened to be open plays posum on the inside he’s Duke Defenders think he’s dead all of a sudden he rises is from the grave and scores he is the nephew of the great Abby wuk fantastic soccer player Brady top 15 recruit out of high school in Pittsburgh New York and here comes naso now charging down over to Zada and Duke at last ends this North Carolina run UNC had scored seven unanswered before Zada gets one back for the Blue Devils scoreless streak approaching about 20 minutes buto out the front side look at him he’s down on the ground rolls over the wing play causes this one to happen tell you a good hustle and pinch there by Jake Wilson and N now backto back games he’s picked up some points he had two goals in the winant the Lefty checked by The All-American Kenny Brower using the pick beating petrala and that is four for petrala his 32nd of the season to tie uncc’s freshman goals record they’re going nuts in the end zone Great left-handed cut from the high slot area kind of like a scissors action here McGovern driving left-handed petrala mirrors him starts on the 10 turnovers for Duke we come up on six minutes to play in the [Music] third North Carolina in the midst of a 71 run it included three goals in the final 20 seconds of the opening half Ley against denza Dubner low shot score [Music] I mean everything going well ly with the invert Dubner grip it and rip it don’t look going to drop down somewhere between probably the four and six or seven range and Carolina stays a a viable and Alive team for the NCAA tournament yeah if you’re Carolina you say the hunt at least if you get the win today that’s again a win against an RPI number one at least for the moment people talk about tournament expansion NCAA tournament 17 teams O’Neal to Dyson Williams C slams the door Big Time save a huge one League tournaments ultimately are an extension of the NCAA bracket McGovern driving on Brower seven points for Logan McGovern now he’s got the short stick matchup he’s played a really really smart game effective such an overachiever look at him tries to feed it into Dubner Carpenter petrala tried to get the ride back here’s Carpenter Turbo’s into the box Carpenter all the way and Williams has the backup Carpenter can go seven career go important three minutes of this game right now right here sets up the fourth quarter madori looking for his first point Zada as tomman the Freshman hung up Zada snakes around it’s a big wheel over to Williams Creek the denial Williams the rebounded score so good in tight spaces roots in the indoor game watch he follows up his own shot expecting to say boom he’s just the fastest and most energized player after the shot Canadian players there’s more rebounds in indoor now O’Neal it’s a matchup Advantage for O’Neal he’s got the shorty frankenheimer picked up now that’s his bad offense yeah you had the you had the match up you set a pick now he’s got the pole drag the pole to O’Neal Zada back to O’Neal turns fires save C Carolina’s got it they’ve got 5 Seconds tomman English listen to this Roar how about senior Colin C three really good stops in that quarter another moment in the Sun and the team that if they’re watching Virginia they might be put in a position now Quint where if this score and especially more than anything this scoring margin holds Virginia might be in a spot where they have to beat Notre Dame so as of right now and again you got to remember goal differential is capped at plus 5 minus5 either way so as of right now you’ve got North Carolina at plus three Virginia at plus two Duke which started the day at plus 5 is now at minus three I know that’s a lot to digest so in that scenario assuming the score and the scoring margin holds Carolina would get in really has been Midfield dysfunction Ben Johnson the only Midfield goal scorer I have on the list I’ve got nobody else really with any kind of points oh denza had one denza had their their second goal Here Comes Tilman oh goes upstairs save some room in the penthouse suite 15- six don’t stick any daggers in the Carolina corpse just yet Tillman the grad student from Colorado great feet roll back press the middle roll back to his right paint the Corner this view will be scintilating [Applause] oh get cursed just incredible and they had that game in 2016 late in the year I believe it was at home against Notre Dame and it was a wild back and forth game and Bones Kelly started winning every face off the it was at Keenan yeah started winning every face off down the stretch they came back and won that game they did there’s Pap and Dick bouncer C got a piece snags other teams will use this defensive strategy going forward that one hits the pipe from landed Dave petrala knows a little something you think about defense just a little something Landing in the game for his outside shot he’s a good Lefty been in and out of the lineup over the course of his career same with Mitchell only one goal this season make it to Grant Mitchell solo effort 15 to7 ISO allei Dodge left-handed gets his hips and shoulders inside he’s able to reach back right-handed and bounce this ball past C looks like cre Creek got a chunk of that ball with his leg Clicks in second goal of the season for Grant Mitchell nothing like John danowski to roll some strange faces into a game when we least expect it right well here’s where Duke has to get traction if they want to come back and they get the procedure call on womach Cal Gerard taking that face off well now a little spark let’s see if they can tie see if they can uh you know run this parlay this Maguire steps into one two in a row for Duke all right if you’re Carolina you’re thinking timeout how soon how soon you going to use it here you look up to the clock you see 650 to go in this game you can’t Panic right now but you’re understanding that goal differential is a major factor here the big part of goal differential when you look at the games between Duke Virginia and UNC it is capped at plus five or minus5 so if you have a goal differential the four teams Notre Dame Virginia Syracuse and D they’re all getting into the NCA tournament the only team in the ACC this year that know needs to win two games to just to have a shot at getting into the ACC tournament or the NCAA tournament is North Carolina there’s no automatic qualifier so there is no automatic inclusion into the NCAA tournament for winning the ACC tournament and even if North Carolina runs the table there’s no guarantee that they get into the NCAA tournament they would finish nine and seven again it’s impossible to predict what their RPI would look like but they would pick up seemingly three top 10 RPI wins along the way and then you have to ask yourself would that be enough what does the committee value here’s denz off off the feat from O’Neal and Duke cuts the margin to six significant we spent some time with Aiden denza two weeks ago a senior from Oyster Bay Long Island recently turned 22-year-old who loves playing golf he’s had some Big Time games this season thought he was excellent late against pen in the mud thought he played [Music] well O’Neal can’t get away from gerer the crowd applauds denza over the shoulder of CRA and Duke has made this a five goal game Quinn faceof win parlayed into offense O’Neal draws two he’s tied up effectively but the ball movement is rapid in and out of sticks Zada does a good job at X of just keep and you knew he rushed it maybe had an extra step he could have taken he was more open than he thought right [Music] here’s madori spinning he’s been well defended today tell you that much he’s been a non-factor as has O’Neal in the second half Denzel looking for room over to Sloat 25 to go madori tries to get to the middle Gard all over and madori gets free and brings Duke within [Music] four running through the stick check you’ll see that the hook check applied by the defender he just runs through it not enough body too much stick he gets to pay dirt he Dodges to the dirt the middle of the field where his angle is supreme madori quiet Duke run and with the goal differential in this game at four you go back to the tie break North Carolina now in a three-way tie scenario would be in trouble O’Neal anvils across the field c ooh Pok in and it’s Pok and it rolls in this one’s not over either it’s 15 to 12 a minute 48 to [Music] [Applause] go no goal they’re calling goalie interference I believe there’s also a flag down or no goal because there was a flag down let’s see what this call 20 seconds they’ve got dance Tilman [Applause] improbable Tillman dumps it into the corner now he’s going to chase it down final 10 seconds and that will be a shot clock violation 7.1 seconds to go Carolina is going to win madori sends it [Music] downfield UNC ball Creek fittingly with the ball in his cross to end the game the UNC bench makes its way to Colin C and cage in a season where there were more Downs than UPS Carolina ends what could be its final game of the year on a high note they stun number two Duke UNC ends an 8 game AC
